Cly Vrtss. MONDAY, MAY 30, 1864 EMANCIPATION Pt KENTUCKY. Speech of Dr. Itreeltiaridge at the Untetr State Centreline's), May fn. At the conclusion of regular business during the' Convention at Louisville, Rev. Dr. 13reektnridge, the progressive leader of Kentucky, was unaninitlus- - , ly called upon for a speech. The meeting had - do;.' Glared " That, having confidence in the honesty, wisdom, and patriotism of Abraham Lincoln, WO' are in favor of his-re-election to the position lienow' occupies." Dr. Brookinrldge hod first boon elected ak!a delegate to the Baltimore Convention,anoa ..._ rose : and said : As you have appointed me one of your delegates to • the 13althnore Convention, 1 should be glad to knew what is the opinion of the meeting in regard te the _Presidoncy. do not want instructions, so [will giveyou my opinion; and Jr you do not like It, you can substitute another man in my place . , It is my honest conviction that Abraham Lincoln is not only the man we ought to-nominate, but he is the only.. man In the United States that there is any certainty Kentucky can unite upon. 10-reat applause.] will go further, and say that if I shall be a repre sentative in that Convention, it is not clear in my own mind that. would be willing. to vote in that body for divers of those who have been nominated is the papers. Lwould be glad to feel authorized to vote for him all the time, and for nobody else. I believe we can give the State of Kentucky for Mr; Lincoln, [applause,] but haie grave doubts whether we can give it to anybody else. I even doubt whether we ought to give it to anybody else. I want now to say something on the slavery "quest tion. -I have had It in my mind a long time, butt have never Ibund an opportune time to say it to the people - who would be favorable hearers, for there Is' about as much depends on the hearer as the speaker, whether any good results from speaking. - A LIFE-LONG EMANCIPATIONIST. In 1050 I was a candidate on the Eniancipation ticket for the Convention to alter the Constitution of Kentucky, and was beaten, - as' probably some , other respectable tudn, who would. not like to ac knowledge it, were beaten at the same time. And in the sense of the Emancipation' party of Ken tucky, 1 wrote three letters : First, one to Mr. Sum ner,-in answer to a speech he made ; second, one in an swer to a'speech or Sewardts, - and the third- in an, swer to a speech made by John Breekinridge, On being elected Senator. They were all written In the sense of an Emancipationist; and I say to-day, without endorsing every sentence I have ever ut tered—for there is rot no man whose opinions Piave less weight with me than my own *hen I have found out they are wrong—on this sudject I hare made no change, for I have been an Emancipation— ist all my life. The first thing I remember in my, boyhood is that, while playihg with a little negro boy that was given me to kick and cuff, I wondered and asked niyself why it was not I who had been given to the negro to be cuffed; and rhaVe never been able tosolve the question to this day. [Laugh er and cheers.] NEVER TECHNICALLY AN ABOLITIONIST. I never was technically an Abolitionist. And let me tell what I mean by that word. In 1631 they put Garrison in jail in Baltimore, and he had just got out - when 1 moved there. He was the originator of the special ideas you call the abolition theory, and they embrace three propositions : First, the instan taneous and universal abolition of slavery, irre spective of their consequences ; but I was always In favor of :-a system of gradual emancipation. The second point was, that the hostility against color was a prejudice, and ought to be abolished, - and the negro ought to be admitted to equality with the white race, according to his merits ; that is, if he was a man of more sense or better culture than a white man, he ought to have the preference in any given ease, as for office or social position. I have always considered this au utterly impossible 'state of society, and have opposed the idea, and do note ask me now to - let negroes vote htKentucky. oppo se notu u e . answer no ;it is impracticable. The prejudice as to color is natural. In the West In dies, where the blacks predominate, they wilt not allow a white- man to vote unless he has a certain amount of black blood In him. The third principle of the Abolition party was utter and unmitigated hatred of colonization. They thought the removal of the freed uegreesWaS the perpetuation of slaverY. But I have been the warm and constant supporter of the establishment of a free State in Africa by the colonization of negroes from the - United States. There never was aßVilized State in the trepies, and I believe the change that would make the greatest impression upon the world would be the establish ment of a civilized free black State within the tropics. mlll9-3m • THE POWER OF TII2 GOVERNIEENT Now, as for any change on my part : In the coarse of this Administration many things have been done that I would not have done. .I believe the power which IS vested in the Government of the United States is far greater, more thorough, and more ca pable of being used for good or for ill, than more generally to be - admittEd by, even our own party. Wherever power has been vested irtAlie Govern ment, his , said further that they who administer the Government shall have power to do whatever Is lie.: cessary to be done for the general defence and wel fare of the nation. what more power can there -be conceived oil The only question that has arisen in mymind has been as to the mode of doing the things necessary for the nation's *elihre. The Constitution of the United States, in giving the popular branch .of the Government-, exclusive'] power to make war, renders it impossible that war should be made except by the concurrence of the majority of the American people. And my own opinion is that whenever a people want to have war, they ought to be allowed to have it and whenever they don't want to fight, nobody ought to make them fight. And you cannot make peace without the Presi dent and two-thirds of the : Senate, which is, in fact, two-thirds of the States, are in favor of making- It. If the people choose to make war, they have to carry it on- until two-thirds want to make peace. Now when you say they shatlhave power to. make, war and to deciare,peace, you- do what is done your State Constitution when you say: "Trial by jury shall be held sacred." That is all you say but the words involve the form of trial, and everything. essential to the trial. So here, when you give to the popular branch of Conuress the power to make war, it involves the-right-to Lill people, and do all other things necessary for the successful prosecution of the war. 'I have said, in talking with my Yankee brethren, that it would be better for them and for the nation, and for mankind, to fight out this war until , NeW England was reduced to the one hundred and twen ty who came over in the Mayflower, and start afresh, than to allow the horrible, the destructive principle of Secession to be established, and these children of the devil domineer over them. [Ap plause.]lf • ' oN AMENDING THE CONSTITUTION. I received, the Other day, a letter from my old friend, Revordy Johnson, of Baltimore, who has made a speech in favor of i amending the Constitu tion. Ile asked me to write whatr I thought about It, and I will give you the substance of my reply : Taking the posture of the negro question as it is, and the nation as it is, my conclusion is, that the Government of the United States is absolutely; bound, by every consideration of statesmanship and of safety, to do (sae of two thfngs It is bound to use. its whole power, both of war and .of peace, to put back the negro, as far as possible, into the condition , he occupied before the war; or it is bound to extermi-.. nate the whole institution, fly all the po wcrs the Con stitution gives it or that can be obtained by an amend ment of that instrument. If I were a pro-shivery man, I would say: Fut back the negro to his former position. But as lam an anti-slavery man, I say Use the whole power of the Government to extin guish the institution of slavery, root and branch.- [Applause, long continued 3 7 here is no legal, effectual mode of putting slavery in the United. States - out of existence, but by the amendment of the Federal Constitution, and the power to make that amendment lies with the , people, not, in Congress ; and for my own, part, I sincerely -hopethey will make that amend.ment.' [Great applause.] I think the best thing yen, as - a" party, can do, is to say you hope they will do It.' You may get beaten by saying it, but yoar children; will gain by it. I have been beaten many times, and I know how one feels under such circumstances. But as to dodging, and throwing dust in people's eyes, lest you be beaten, I have nothing to. say against it; and if I can see any advantage resulting from it after it is done, 1 will use it, but I will not lie for the sake of obtaining it. AT.: EMANCIPATION PROPOSITION. But there is a reason why youshOuld not pass such a resolution. - While I love America better than Ilove any other country in the world; I love Kentucky bet;:: ter, asthe best part ofAmerica. NoW what can Ken tucky do to get out of this difficulty, as a matter of policy I Thirty years ago -I undertook to prove, and I thitiit did prove, that, under the present Constitu tion of Kentucky the power of the State is absolute over those persons born after the passage of a law in regard to them ; that is, that slavery attaches on birth and not before, and that the unborn child,ts not a slave in that sense that it is beyond the power of the Constitution. The word slaves, inthe Con etitution, 'means only those beings that are in exltt:' once at the time, and those that the law.will; allow' to come into existencewith the, condition of servi tude attaching to them in an absolute mariner.' :If the legislators choose to allow them to come intO existence absolutely as slaves, or if they choose to -prevent their coming in as slaves absolutely, slave ry attaches in such manner only as the legislative power may determine under the Comititution. What you might gain by this view ofthe case is, that If you can send to the Legislature men who will give that interpretation to the Constitution, youcan abolish slavery in this State at the end of the -pro!' sent living generation. • Butaupposing - my interpretation wrong, you haVe another left you, for you can take tho slaves and pay. for them, irrespective of the will of the owner, bif giving a, just compensation. Mr. Breckiuridge then spoke of a scheme that might be consummated, by which the General „Go vernment would grant the -State say fifty - of acres of public lands with which. to pay for the emancipation of slaves in Kentucky. • We are in'great peril in Kentucky. The State divided into three equal-parts. - About one-third are Secessionists; one-third are loyal, and may be reliqd upon to the last extremity; the other third are mere dangerous than rebels, for if they can make a coin bination with the Secessionists, and are allowed to" vote, they will beat us, If those who are' die , franchised by • law are prevented from voting,-?ye shall beat them. lam in favor of allowing every man to vote who is entitled to, but no others. They have another Governor and another Congress. They had a son of mine sitting in their Congress, the meanest thing, I think, -he ever did. Let them go there; theyhave no business's - Ming for our Governer or members of Congress. In conclusion, I do not Intend to live, audit' I can help myself, will not die in any other Government than that of tint United -States; - and, as long ! as a party one-half as large as yours appears to be Wets in Kentucky, I believe she will remain there alit-:' To the Editor of The Press: SIR : A great deal has been said aboid the wo and, after all, the cheapest and most expeditio j way to get rid of them, (as far as my experidnce goes,) is to procure a long fishing-rod and strike the limbs suddenly, and every worm will drop off. adopted the above plan last spring, repeating the operation three mornings in succession, (to get.ths last worm,) and this year there Is not .one our trees. They must, of course, be swept up and de stroyed, or it would be useless to coMmenee the job. I should be ashamed to allow my trees to get into the condition that I see some, since a few hours , la bor will rid me of them.

The chief ariny of_the enemy has'abandoned lta`base on the Rapidan' and Upper Rappahannock, aisd[established a neeinource of supply on the lowdr Waterd of the last-hamed river, at Port Royal and Tappahannoek. Hirtroopc are massed *i the country between tlw Mattapon9;and the Lower Raypahannock. — His front is at illilford 4 and the Bowling Green. This eliang&of poSitlon haa refl.= dered necessaryut carrells:aiding change in the posi tiorrof Genera? Iree: After ascertaining that rtf enemy was leir to tight in Speenylvailla,he has come down the line' Be hat held with success from the first, and againvlanted himself between Grant and Richmond, near Hanover Junction, The Northern joirritels certainly 64 ,— deep up their game wonderfully weii;thongh they razke no quota tion of gold. They persist to the, luetin - the noisy lies . the flagrant Imposture, the - palpable:sophism,. the vulgar boast dcwhnded by their '..mat4er at Washington, with unabated vigor and pertheacity, thoukii they do nut quote9te price - Of gold: On. the news Not this movement' by Gen. Lee that; wilt, of enure(); raise the yell of triumph louder tharrever. The retreat of Lee—the flight of the Oonfedelates Have thhy not abandonedi Spottsylvanin Court House?' is not the Junction twenty mites neareeßich mond ? l'Vqstrppose that people have sense in New.

Cult to make them believe that the - Confedsente army is flying when it moves from a position which its adverysairphae abandoned to place itself full he. , fore him aerosatinenew road on which he has defer-- mined to travel, . . When General Lee moves his army after a lost battle, Cur the purpose of getting a*eay from his an-' tagonist, because he toads himself unable to main tain a struggleefbrute force with hint he will have retreated. But if, Whir party has done that, if is certainly Grant—Lee followed him from the Wilder nes; he is now the last , to.iisove and is puOrtzer, nod pur sued from Spollsylitania.. It is true that by both movements these armies 'ave been:6l.o%4M nearer to Richmond; but for Dee it was rendered necessary by the configuration of the soil and the-lines of ' those rivers which he ha/rosolveil to defend. They have their sources remote from the city, approach it in their course, and' 'empty their waters in the neigh boring York. But for Grant it was choice. He is, where he now is because - he could, not pass over the road of - his;ifirst an& second choice. • 1 - Se might have- come ro Spottsylvanta by travelling along the -straight road from' , Washington ta Frede ricksburg through Stafford, without firing a shot or losing a -man: Ho might have ar rived at - pdilford and Bawling Green from Port Royal or Tappahannock without the slaughter *of • his troops in the Wildemesaor at the Court House. He might have Come still-nearer. fie .migho have come to the Piplhg .Tree, within seven miles of Rich mond, without-an engagement with Gen. Lee.. He might have come up the Peninsula,perhalis, to fair Oaks, and n joined hands with' Huller on /he south side, as some still aspect him to do, and this -he will doubt less proclaim, in the end, to haver been the object. of all his circuitous routes. By each. of these ways of advance he would have brought Gen. Lee from the .Rapidan nearer to Richmond. Ho did not take them because there were dahgers and defects. He .pre , - forted the first and the second before the third„. , and thif before the fourth. That he abandoned, after trial, the two first, is due to-two clear defeats in battle.- So far from-losing ground, Lee' has gained mani fest advantages by each change of the lines. - It is easier to dmend that portion of , hie line which is near to Richmond than that whicluwas far removed from• it. He is far better situated. now than at Spottsylvania. Court House, and that was better than the Wilderness. In either place his supplies; stores, and reinforcements had to , come up from Richmond. The country has been long since seared and beaten into a desert,by the drums - atuttramplings of three invasions. - From the railroad's to his camp weary miles of red minl,Were always interposed by , every shower. His cavalry -is notoriously defective, and has always provenmetficientto protect his com munications at those mothents when they were most needed. While operating on the-lower rivers all of these troubles are over. A few- hours give him his supplies. The roads can no. longer be ' severed with Impunity. The difficulties-under which he has labored are transferred to the.seore of the enemy. Perhaps a conviction that it would be so was the - reason which made Grant prefer to encoun ter'Lee in the Wilderness, instead of comingstraight to Milford. - Ex-President Franklin Pierce has written a letter to a friend in reference to the sudden death of Mr. Hawthorne at Plymouth.. Mr. Pierce says: f , Mr. - Hawthorne lies upon his side ; hieposition so perfectly natural and easy, his eyes closed, that .it is difficult to realize, while looking upon his noble face, that this is death. lie must have passed from natural slumber to" that from which there is no waking, without the slightest movement.” FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. . -Gold cf'utinues to move steadily nu - Wards, having ad -Tamed ai one time on Saturday lb 189. This is the high point it has reached since the first issue of the Go-. veltment currency. Unless - we shall have a speedy and decisive victory in the field, there is no telling how much further the premium -will be carried. Wee see no evidence of an early contraction of the currency to in sure a downfall in gold. Our sole reliance, for the pre sent; at least, is upon our armies, and the present cant paig-n will doubtless realize the anticipations of success everywhere felt in the approaching contest. To hare a permanent effect, however, upon prices, the victory at 8.2113 T must be decisive.' The hope of the country is cen tered in General Grant's army, and to it trade and commerce must look for an early return to a prosperity founded upon a firm 'and solid basis. If any one department of the Executive Govern ment can be said to have a greater interest than another in the success of the army, it is the Treasury Depart ment. Finances and war are intimately related. Without the one the other could not be prosecuted. Thus far our able Fecretaey of the Treasury has performed a work whirls probably no other financier of modern times could have execnied. With gold at a premium se, preaching to the nineties, his task is doubly difficult, and it is not too much to expect of him that, aided by the,armY,. be,will, as he has frequently done before, so redriCd the gold premium. as to hring woe to the whole tribe Of the speculators. The ten-forty loan continues to be taken with gieat avidity in all parts of the country. About a million dollars per day is subscribed, and it will be kept on the market - until the VI:0,000,000 is sold. Our circulating medium now consists of two hundred millions of State bank - notes, four hundred and forty millions of greenbacks, and over two hundred millions of five per cent. legal-tenders. To these must be added twenty millions of the national bank notes. The volume of the circulation is now believed to be almost twice as • • . large as is required for the necessities of business. The coal trade of Pennsylvania shows a large increase of tonnage over past years. Already the excess for this year over last ainonnvrto 161,855 tons. Coal. companies are sprouting up in various direCtions. Most of them, we are happy to say, are genuine, and built upon sure bases. The - Pottsville Miners' Journal of Saturday prints the advertisement of - a - certain coal company, having its office in this city, which proposes with every alai% of stock sold to give each share " two heavy tons of coal at cost, besides cash dividends from profits. The journal adds: - 'We do not know who are the 'getters-up' of the above project, but we take this occasion to caution the public against all such. humbugs. The prospectus does not state where the lands are located in this county, the' quantity held, &c. It requires one half, of the sub scriptions to be paid down in cash on subscribing, and the balance in August next. ho person'can whether the laud is even located in the coal region by the above advertisement, or whether it is Red Scha/e, like the Tamacpaa Coal Company's lands, There is another queer feature about this advertisement.
